Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1/2 cup raisins
2/3 cup milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Dough:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the cold cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the raisins until evenly distributed.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
4. Form the Dough:
Gently mix the wet and dry ingredients until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it into a circle about 1 inch thick.
5. Cut the Scones:
Using a sharp knife or a biscuit cutter, cut the dough into wedges or rounds, depending on your preference.
Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
6. Bake the Scones:
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown and cooked through.
7. Cool and Serve:
Remove the scones from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly.
Serve the scones warm with butter, clotted cream, or your favorite jam.
